Herb Alpert & Lani Hall

February 9, 2011

He may not be as recognizable without the Tijuana Brass, but this ol’ labelhead and trumpeter had his catchy/kitschy string of hits in the ’60’s, not to mention a disco hit in the ’70s. Lately, he’s been teaming up with his wife, singer Lani Hall; their previous album of standards mined pre-rock pop while their new one mines Van Morrison and the Beatles in a jazzy bossa style. For adult contemporary, it’s nice, relaxing stuff ID’d by Herb’s clear tone.
